It's time to wake up!!!How fast you will wake up, and how much grummpy you are.

Hey there Icesmile! Haha! Every weekday when I have classes, I'm usually the first to wake up from both of my siblings, I wake up around 5-6:30 am take a bath end before 6:30 and then my siblings take a bath. I go up quite easily if I know there is classes since I don't want to be late and have to face the guidance counselor and his long, long, long lectures! and the guidance counselor's stare, the stare of pure anger! Hahaha!

Well I always trick myself into thinking Im getting more sleep. My clock in my room is 5 mintues fast and I set my alarm at least 30 mins before I really have to get up. Some morning is hard to get up as it is for everyone but I just do it, just like everyone else does.


As for your son, all kids go through that. My cousin Kevin had a really problem getting up when he was suppose to. It was just a couple of years ago when he went away to college and got a job that he began waking up properly.

My sister is always hard to get up. When I was still living at home she was a mess to get up.She is not a morning person and when she has the morning shift at work watch out!!! She is so grumpy.

He is your son..so you are his FATHER.. so better up your game...he is under your authority..even 10 church bells wont do..he will smash them up!! get his privilages cut off anytime he wakes up late..dont wake him up..step up as his FATHER not BROTHER..ok?

oops..apologies! you are the MOTHER! so no more arguments with him just let him wake up on his own..or else face repercussions..in the event it fails..just send him to a strict boarding school..thats a MAN you bringing up.,be strict on him.

I wake up easily since my alarm even disturb my dream. Besides, I place it a bit far so I need to get up and fetch it. There's no point of ignoring as the sound will never stop. My sister has your son problem. She might toss and turn as I try to wake her up. Even after wake up, she just sit down sleepily and go back to sleep just like that.

your son probably sleeps very late at night. if so, the thing that needs to be changed is that habit but you said he is 19? maybe you can give him a curfew so that he comes home early? then maybe you need to make it clear to him that since he is a student, he has to go to school and not be late. if his tardiness will cause anything to make his grades go low or failing then you can treaten (cant think of other term milder. lol) like taking away some liberties he presently is enjoying? or ground him? oh my! i guess it will cause war?
still the best way is talk with him the rational way and explain the sober way. if you have been giving him a "loud speaker talk" everytime, maybe you can change your style?
hey, is there any sickness that is causing this? maybe you should send him to a doctor?

Yes!!!!!I do My son he ia hard as a brick wall to wake up,when he has to go to school, he will take for ever, to get up and get ready for school, he is 18 now and he is still hard to wake up, but if money is the issue, he will get out of bed in a hurry, so he can go and spend some money, I don't understand that I guess he like money a lot.

Hi, Ice!
Waking up is one of the things I do really poorly. It takes me forever, it seems, to wake up completely. I'm barely able to speak and almost always in a fog for hours. I don't get very grumpy, but I'm certainly not friendly in the morning.

I think all of the kids are just like your son. When I was a kid, I really love to sleep. sleep even it takes 16 hours damn!

i usually press snooze on my alarm at least once as i don't like to get straight out of bed, i like to wake up slowly and adjust my state of mind to being awake.

when i get out of bed i like to do what i have to do without too much small talk or questions, i'm usually quiet but not grumpy for about twenty minutes. i just need time to fully wake up before i'm ready to hold a full blown conversation or answer questions.
